    Absolutely nothing wrong. Their whole argument is that it delivers no guarantees about the things set in these files, but setting these presets is more about convenience than enforcing an equal development environment.

    Whoever needs to enforce things like formatting and linting at the project level should be using a CI step.

    Can we stop with the absolutes?

    It’s okay to commit IDE config if your team uses mostly one editor.

    It’s also okay to include extension recommendations. While extensions may not be needed to run the code, depending on the editor and language they’re highly desirable. It’s that kind of extension that should be recommended. I’m sure there’s a setting to disable them if, for some reason, the editor keeps asking you.
